"The Bucket Brigade, a symbolic mass action of defiance of federal policy was to protest actions taken by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife service. The transfer of water to an almost dry canal was led by Jess Prosser, an 85-year-old World War II veteran who homesteaded on the Klamath Project with his son and grandson. They drew the first of 50 buckets of water from the Veterans Park boat ramp at Lake Ewauna in Klamath Falls." *
